Learn MoreReach out by phone or through our contact form. Tell us what you need and where you are. We respond within 1 business day and schedule a time to visit your property - no charge, no commitment required. You get to ask questions and understand what to expect before anything is decided.
We come to you, look at the site in person, and take measurements. Then we give you a written estimate that spells out exactly what is included - concrete thickness, base depth, control joints, cleanup, and whether permits are part of the job. No vague line items. No surprises after the work starts.
Once you approve the proposal, we schedule the job and handle everything from permitting to cleanup. When the work is done, we walk the finished project with you before we leave. You know what was done and why, and you know what to expect from the cured surface over the coming days and seasons.
Michigan requires residential contractors to hold a state license, and we do. We also carry full liability insurance on every project so you are protected if anything unexpected happens on your property.
We come to your property, look at the job, and give you a written estimate that itemizes everything before you commit to a single dollar. The visit is free and there is no pressure to move forward.
We have been doing concrete work in Burton and the surrounding Genesee County area since 2017. We know the local soil, the climate, and what it takes to build concrete that survives Michigan winters.
Every finished job ends with a walkthrough where we go over what was done and answer your questions. If something is not right, we make it right before we leave - not after a phone call that never gets returned.

"They finished our driveway in two days, right on the schedule they gave us at the start. The surface looks clean and the edges are straight. Our old driveway had been cracking for three winters - this one already looks better than anything we had before."
Kevin M., Grand Blanc - Concrete driveway building
"I called about a patio and had a written estimate in my hand within two days. The crew showed up when they said they would, kept the yard clean, and the finished patio has the slope we needed to keep water away from the foundation. That was the main thing I was worried about."
Diana R., Davison - Concrete patio construction
"We wanted stamped concrete for the front walk and were nervous about picking the pattern. They brought samples to the estimate visit so we could actually see what it would look like. The finished walk looks exactly like the sample - the color is consistent and the edges are sharp."

Concrete typically outperforms asphalt in Michigan because it handles freeze-thaw cycles without softening in summer heat. Asphalt requires more frequent sealing and can rut under heavy vehicles during hot weather.
Burton and Genesee County sit in a zone where the ground freezes more than three feet deep each winter. Water in small cracks expands when it freezes, widening those cracks a little more each spring - a cycle that eventually breaks the slab from the inside.
The gravel layer under concrete allows water to drain away from the slab instead of collecting and freezing beneath it. In clay-heavy soils like those in the Flint-Burton area, skipping the base is one of the most common reasons slabs settle and crack within a few years.
If panels are heaving or sinking relative to each other, or if the surface is crumbling rather than just cracking, patching is usually a short-term fix. The Portland Cement Association recommends replacement when structural damage is widespread.
Rock salt and calcium chloride damage concrete surfaces by accelerating surface flaking, especially in the first few winters after installation. Sand provides traction without chemical damage. Look for ice melt products labeled safe for concrete and masonry.
Most new concrete surfaces can be walked on after 24 to 48 hours. Vehicles should stay off for a full seven days. Concrete continues to gain strength for 28 days after the pour - heavy loads during that window can leave permanent marks.
For more on concrete materials and installation standards, the Portland Cement Association publishes homeowner guides covering mix design, curing, and maintenance.

Surface cracks less than a quarter-inch wide can often be filled and sealed effectively. Once panels are heaving, sinking, or crumbling at the edges, full replacement is more cost-effective over the next decade than continued patching.
A standard four-inch residential driveway handles passenger vehicles. If you regularly park a truck, trailer, or RV, you need five to six inches - this is a decision made before the pour, not after.
A concrete sealer slows moisture penetration, resists road-salt damage, and keeps the surface from flaking during freeze-thaw cycles. In Michigan, resealing every two to three years is a practical maintenance step - not just a nice-to-have.

Burton is a mid-size city of roughly 30,000 residents in Genesee County, located just southeast of Flint and closely connected to the greater Flint metro area. Most of the city was developed during the postwar decades - the 1950s through the 1970s - when auto-industry jobs drew families to communities like Burton, and much of that original housing stock is still here today. The city is home to well-known local landmarks including the Dort Financial Center arena and Genesee Valley Center, one of the largest shopping destinations in the region.
Homes in Burton are predominantly single-family ranch styles built on slab or basement foundations, with attached garages and modest lots. At 50 to 70 years old, many of these properties have driveways, sidewalks, and patios that were installed decades ago - often without the base preparation that is standard today. The city sits in a zone where the ground freezes more than three feet deep, according to National Weather Service Detroit, and the combination of deep frost and clay-heavy Genesee County soils is the primary reason concrete fails early in this area. Driveways crack, sidewalks heave, and patios settle - and much of it traces back to original installations that never accounted for these conditions.
Custom Burton Concrete has been working with Burton homeowners since 2017, and we understand what the soil, the winters, and the housing stock here demand from a concrete installation. Whether you are near the neighborhoods served by Atherton Community Schools or on the quieter streets on the south side of town, we bring the same approach to every job - proper base preparation, the right mix for this climate, and concrete that is built to last through Michigan winters.
